Born in Chicago, Illinois, Frohawk Two Feathers (the professional name of Umar Rashid) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Los Angeles. He developed a distinct practice that blends historical research with speculative fiction, often creating elaborate, self-contained mythologies that reframe the colonial era.

His work frequently incorporates painting, drawing, and sculpture, often presented alongside handwritten texts that serve as primary documents for his invented historical timelines. These pieces examine the complexities of human conflict and cultural exchange through a lens that is both satirical and deeply analytical.

The artist has gained recognition for his ability to weave complex narratives across diverse media, consistently challenging traditional historical perspectives. His practice remains focused on the intersection of storytelling and visual art, maintaining a rigorous commitment to his ongoing, expansive historical project.
